If you take Road 149 from Visby going north for 13 km (nine miles), you’ll reach the Lummelunda Cave (Lummelundagrottan). There is an old saying among cave experts (speleologists) – the best way to preserve a cave is to never find it. Unfortunately, Lummelunda was discovered over 50 years ago and draws hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. This makes it the biggest tourist attraction on Gotland. It is also one of the few caves in Sweden not in the mountains up north. The cave is four km (2.4 miles) long and divided into two parts, one for tourists and one for adventurers.
While the tourist section is a pleasant walk in an illuminated area, the adventure portion goes through water and narrow passages. Atour in the adventure section needs to be booked in advance and costs 480 kr/$51. For the claustrophobic or those afraid of the dark, or perhaps for those who want to save some money, the tourist section costs 70 kr/$7.50 to enter. The cave is open between May and September.
